I heard about that one yeah :( I actually have other speakers that are Philips too, which were manufactured in Hungary. One of them has started to crap out, we'll see how long they last!

I was looking for a more technical answer but that about sums it up i guess :P Built-in obsolesence maybe...

Thank you. Do you have any idea why it could have broken?

It is connected with 3.5mm coming from my PC. On the subwoofer it says that the model is "A 5.100/00", I found a picture: https://img.2ememain.be/f/normal/258044020-philips-5-1-systeem-met-subwoofer.jpg I always assumed that satellites were passive so i don't know if they are self-powered...

If the speakers are passive and do not come with its own power supply you will need an amplifier. Does it have a 3.5mm line in? just FYI i'm not an audio expert

I just moved to a new apartment and I have set up my subwoofer. For some reason it outputs bass but no sound. FYI It does not have a switch for turning off the satellite speakers. I tried using another subwoofer with the same satellites, connected to the same power outlet and using the same...

This is a mockup pic of the type of ghosting that my TV has. The contour of the sofa is “ghosted” on top. Another example would be if the wallpaper had patterns on it; that pattern would be slightly seen on the man’s shirt. It never seems to do it with irregular objects tho, only lines and...

I know this is lightly irrelevant, but Bitlord is not a good app. Bitlord is banned from several private trackers precisely because it's a crappy piece of software. I'd recommend qbittorrent, it looks similar to Bitlord. This is a list of "acceptable" torrent clients:

I struggle on the fence of wanting Kodi , HTPC etc. I'm pretty content using the Windows native interface. When it comes to buying an HTPC I feel like it's a bit redundant since I already have a computer hooked up to my TV which is the same computer I use for normal desktop use as well... My...

Oh lord....:ouch: then again what is there to control? Are you referring to at-home movie theater curtains? Can't think of anything else...:sarcastic:

Hah, you sound pretty convincing, it makes me want to have a HT system, but my foremost hobby ATM is home automation so there's no room in the budget for more luxury toys :) Edit: which doesn't mean I have much money at all, my home automation so far has cost about 250

What you can do is buy an USB-UIRT which can control your TV via infrared. Then, install Eventghost on your PC and you can then schedule your TV to turn on and off at any time using Evenghost, or switch channels - anything that your TV remote can do, can be accomplished with eventghost. You can...

I know, I just read about that in an indiegogo campaign for headphones that compensate for your particular hearing. But thanks anyway for expounding. When writing my post I was writing from a place of "omg he's willing to spend insane amounts of money on home theater audio.. WHY GOD WHY". I'm...
